  • Broadcom has released cards based on a new AMBA-based bus type. From a
    programming point of view, this new bus type differs from AMBA and does
    not use AMBA common registers. It also differs enough from SSB. We
    decided that a new bus driver is needed to keep the code clean.

    In its current form, the driver detects devices present on the bus and
    registers them in the system. It allows registering BCMA drivers for
    specified bus devices and provides them basic operations. The bus driver
    itself includes two important bus managing drivers: ChipCommon core
    driver and PCI(c) core driver. They are early used to allow correct
    initialization.

    Currently code is limited to supporting buses on PCI(e) devices, however
    the driver is designed to be used also on other hosts. The host
    abstraction layer is implemented and already used for PCI(e).

    Support for PCI(e) hosts is working and seems to be stable (access to
    80211 core was tested successfully on a few devices). We can still
    optimize it by using some fixed windows, but this can be done later
    without affecting any external code. Windows are just ranges in MMIO
    used for accessing cores on the bus.

  • We don't use the normal hotplug mechanism because it doesn't work. It will
    load the module some time after the device appears, but that's not good
    enough for us -- we need the driver loaded _immediately_ because otherwise
    the NIC driver may just abort and then the phy 'device' goes away.

  • With this patch spi drivers can use standard spi_driver.id_table and
    MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE() mechanisms to bind against the devices. Just like
    we do with I2C drivers.

    This is useful when a single driver supports several variants of devices
    but it is not possible to detect them in run-time (like non-JEDEC chips
    probing in drivers/mtd/devices/m25p80.c), and when platform_data usage is
    overkill.

    This patch also makes life a lot easier on OpenFirmware platforms, since
    with OF we extensively use proper device IDs in modaliases.

  • Now platform_device is being widely used on SoC processors where the
    peripherals are attached to the system bus, which is simple enough.

    However, silicon IPs for these SoCs are usually shared heavily across
    a family of processors, even products from different companies. This
    makes the original simple driver name based matching insufficient, or
    simply not straight-forward.

    Introduce a module id table for platform devices, and makes it clear
    that a platform driver is able to support some shared IP and handle
    slight differences across different platforms (by 'driver_data').
    Module alias is handled automatically when a MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE()
    is defined.

    To not disturb the current platform drivers too much, the matched id
    entry is recorded and can be retrieved by platform_get_device_id().

  • This makes modpost handle MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(dmi, xxxx).

    I had to change the string pointers in the match table to char arrays,
    and picked a size of 79 bytes almost at random -- do we need to make it
    bigger than that? I was a bit concerned about the 'bloat' this
    introduces into the match tables, but they should all be __initdata so
    it shouldn't matter too much.

    (Actually, modpost does go through the relocations and look at most of
    them; it wouldn't be impossible to make it handle string pointers -- but
    doesn't seem to be worth the effort, since they're __initdata).

  • This attempts to implement a "virtual I/O" layer which should allow
    common drivers to be efficiently used across most virtual I/O
    mechanisms. It will no-doubt need further enhancement.

    The virtio drivers add buffers to virtio queues; as the buffers are consumed
    the driver "interrupt" callbacks are invoked.

    There is also a generic implementation of config space which drivers can query
    to get setup information from the host.

  • I2C devices do not have any form of ID as PCI or USB devices have.
    No driver uses "MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(i2c, ...)" because it doesn't

    associated support code.

  • SSB is an SoC bus used in a number of embedded devices. The most
    well-known of these devices is probably the Linksys WRT54G, but there
    are others as well. The bus is also used internally on the BCM43xx
    and BCM44xx devices from Broadcom.

    This patch also includes support for SSB ID tables in modules, so
    that SSB drivers can be loaded automatically.

  • Add modalias attribute support for the almost forgotten now EISA bus and
    (at least some) EISA-aware modules.

    The modalias entry looks like (for an 3c509 NIC):

    eisa:sTCM5093

    and the in-module alias like:

    eisa:sTCM5093*

    The patch moves struct eisa_device_id declaration from include/linux/eisa.h
    to include/linux/mod_devicetable.h (so that the former now #includes the
    latter), adds proper MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(eisa, ...) statements for all
    drivers with EISA IDs I found (some drivers already have that DEVICE_TABLE
    declared), and adds recognision of __mod_eisa_device_table to
    scripts/mod/file2alias.c so that proper modules.alias will be generated.

    There's no support for /lib/modules/$kver/modules.eisamap, as it's not used
    by any existing tools, and because with in-kernel modalias mechanism those
    maps are obsolete anyway.

    The rationale for this patch is:

    a) to make EISA bus to act as other busses with modalias
    support, to unify driver loading

    b) to foget about EISA finally - with this patch, kernel
    (who still supports EISA) will be the only one who knows
    how to choose the necessary drivers for this bus ;)

  • Add a bus for the adjunct processor interface. Up to 64 devices can
    be connect to the ap bus interface, each device with 16 domains. That
    makes 1024 message queues. The interface is asynchronous, the answer
    to a message sent to a queue needs to be received at some later point
    in time. Unfortunately the interface does not provide interrupts when
    a message reply is pending. So the ap bus needs to implement some
    fancy polling, each active queue is polled once per 1/HZ second or
    continuously if an idle cpus exsists and the poll thread is activ
    (see poll_thread parameter).

    The ap bus uses the sysfs path /sys/bus/ap and has two bus attributes,
    ap_domain and config_time. The ap_domain selects one of the 16 domains
    to be used for this system. This limits the maximum number of ap devices
    to 64. The config_time attribute contains the number of seconds between
    two ap bus scans to find new devices.

    The ap bus uses the modalias entries of the form "ap:tN" to autoload
    the ap driver for hardware type N. Currently known types are:
    3 - PCICC, 4 - PCICA, 5 - PCIXCC, 6 - CEX2A and 7 - CEX2C.
